Coping with Loneliness and Social Isolation as a Carer

This pre-recorded 45 minute training session by Griefline, designed for kinship, foster, and permanent carers, focuses on understanding loneliness and isolation while emphasising the importance of self-care. 

The session explores definitions and classifications of loneliness and delves into the causes, risk factors, and psychological factors that contribute to this experience. Additionally, the connection between grief, loss, and loneliness is discussed. Practical tools and strategies to help carers look after themselves while supporting the children in their care are also provided.
